[PATCH] Decrease cross-threshold roam difficulty

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Decrease the roam difficulty when roaming across the short background
scan threshold (i.e. when the current BSS RSSI is below the threshold
and the selected BSS RSSI is above the threshold). This tends to happen
in normal roaming scenarios when moving from the domain of one AP to
the domain of another.
